Description

The poems in this collection follow on from Keating's first collection A First Act. They add to the beginnings of a new poetry in Australia that gives voice to the experience of living with a spiritual Master. There is a freshness here, a vitality, a sense of humour, and a love for a very personal Beloved who is the intimate presence in the heart of the poet. About the Author: Ross Keating is a writer and poet who lives in Sydney, Australia. He first heard of Meher Baba (1894-1969) in 1969 and travelled to India on pilgrimage in 1973 when he was twenty-two. Discovering Meher Baba's writings gave him a sense of His Master's divinity while visiting India and seeing where He lived, and finding out first-hand from His close mandali, how He lived, gave him a sense of His Master's perfect humanity. His first book, Francis Brabazon Poet of the Silent Word (2002) has been described as the definitive biography of the Australian poet who lived in India with Meher Baba for ten years as a disciple-poet. The book covers all of Brabazon's writings including his epic poem, Stay With God, and his creation of an English ghazal, which grew out of his deep spiritual relationship with his Master. A First Act (2015) is the author's first collection of poems. It has been described as "a collection of very original works in the style that is both easy to read and intriguingly thought-provoking. As a personal journey, the sequence of poems can be seen as footsteps on the path of spiritual growth, although expressed in unexpected and surprising ways." His third book, Reading Stay with God (2017) tells the story of four like-minded spiritual seekers in the seventies reading together on a weekly basis, Francis Brabazon's book-length poem Stay With God. Instead of reading the work from cover to cover, they select various themes and issues that interest them and explore what Stay With God has to say on these topics. The atmosphere is casual but the discussion serious. The stories are mainly dialogue and written in the refreshing style of a journal.
